UITextView does not display text - uitextview

Question

In my viewDidLoad I can get UILabels and UITextFields to display text but not a UITextView. Am I doing something wrong in the code below?
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
UIView* headerWrapper = [[UIView alloc] init];
//tap gesture is for each section so we can click on it
UITapGestureRecognizer *headerTap = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(showContent:)];
header = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame: CGRectMake(10.0, 10.0, 738.0, 40.0)];
header.backgroundColor = [UIColor blackColor];
//get the header frame
CGRect headerFrame = header.frame;
//add the gesture
[headerWrapper addGestureRecognizer:headerTap];
//add a label
UILabel* lblSectionTitle = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame: CGRectMake(10.0, 3.0, headerFrame.size.width, 24.0)];
lblSectionTitle.text = #"This is a test";
lblSectionTitle.font = [UIFont fontWithName:#"Helvetica" size:20.0];
lblSectionTitle.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
lblSectionTitle.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
[header addSubview:lblSectionTitle];
[headerWrapper addSubview:header];
//this is the wrapper for the content
UIView* contentView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(10.0, headerFrame.size.height + 15.0, headerFrame.size.width, 200.0)];
contentView.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
UITextView* tvContent = [[UITextView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, headerFrame.size.width, 200.0)];
[tvContent setText:#"This is a content test."];
tvContent.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
tvContent.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
tvContent.font = [UIFont fontWithName:#"Trebuchet" size:18.0];
[contentView addSubview:tvContent];
[headerWrapper addSubview:contentView];
[self.view addSubview:headerWrapper];
NSLog(#"%#", tvContent.text);
}

I just had this problem today and solved it by changing:
[tvContent setText:#"This is a content test."];
to
tvContent.text = #"This is a content test.";
At first I thought the problem was with not having my UITextView loaded. But after I made sure it was loaded and connected in the interface builder (not your case since you are doing it programmatically), I could only set its content by doing direct attribution instead of calling setText.
Hope it helps!
